Heart Day Love

Thursday, February 17, 2011

I've always said Valentine's Day is everything wonderful in the world: red, pink, hearts, flowers, chocolates, cards (well, maybe all of my favorite things ; ) Being a teacher on Valentine's Day is the best since it lets you experience all of these things through the eyes of little ones...

The crafts:

The Mailboxes:

The Valentines:

My firsties were super excited to open their boxes at the end of the day. Watching them was so much fun : ) As was Petite Mason with my husband! It was a lovely desert night:

We went to Petitie Maison last year for Valentine's Day as well. It's a "country bistro specializing in traditional French cuisine" and just like its name it's petite with just 33 indoor seats. On Valentine's Day they do a special set menu and I wouldn't mind making it a tradition ; )

The food was amazing. My favorite course was the third: Beef Tournedo with Roasted Artichokes, Pommes Robuchon, and Red Wine Bordelaise (and the paired Cotes du Rhone). It was I have to close my eyes while I'm eating this good : )
